Order #1 |
Thank you to all of the units that placed Order #1!
$10K Delivery Update
The packs and troops that sold $10,000 or more in 2015 are eligible to have Order #1 delivered to a location of their choosing. The contact information for these units, which we received through the unit commitment form, has been forwarded to our partner, Read's Moving Systems, who will be reaching out to setup the date, time and place for your delivery.
Read's will be receiving and sorting the popcorn this week, and are currently reaching out to units now. The timing of the delivery depends on the truck schedules and the responsiveness from all of our units who are receiving deliveries.
Non-$10K Order Pick-Up
For all other units that placed Order #1, product pick-up will be available during the
Council-Wide Roundtable and Popcorn Kickoff on Saturday, August 27, down the street from the festivities at the Valley Forge Middle School at the Firestone Scouting Resource Center.
Pick-up times will be from 9 AM to 2 PM. Times are not being assigned to units, so just stop by.
Product may be available on August 27 for units that haven't placed an order on a first-come, first-served basis.
Make sure to swing by the Valley Forge Middle School before or after you pick-up your popcorn to get forms and resources!

Show & Sells at SEPTA Locations |
Once again, the Cradle of Liberty Council has obtained a permit from SEPTA for Scouting units to sell popcorn at selection of stations, listed below, from Saturday, August 27 through Friday, October 21. The permit covers the following list of SEPTA locations; please note that not every SEPTA location has been approved due to space, safety concerns and station ownership.

Scouts must be accompanied by appropriate adult supervision at all times, must not obstruct any foot traffic, and must obey any posted rules or direction by SEPTA authorities on the premises.
